  1. over the last ~10 years missouri's drivers age went from 16 to 18 for a full license.
  2. if gas engines are still being made in 30 years, i'd be surprised if there wasn't a displacement tax on them.... at least if it's not a HD truck and, i'd bet most vehicles would not have v6 options.
  3. every ~5K, bought a deal at the dealership till 35K.
  4. soon, only the mazda5 will not have a skyactive anything...
  5. very nice. even a 2.0L turbo for a mazda speed3 if it reaches 200hp and ~250lbft would still be attractive over the 2.5 NA. just sayin.
  6. that cutlass is mostly what my dad's looks like... except his is a supreme....
  7. perhaps the "mud flaps" for my car.... A detail and the clear paint protection for the front... or a new body color passenger mirror cover (rock or something scraped a streak in it)
  8. Here ya go: UnionPacific6922.jpg nice. maybe a tad too big. how about one from NRE...
  9. why not just have a chart of MPG with "city, and hwy", but also 5 mile avgs at every 10 mph up to 80? this would be flat and no wind.
  10. said depends.. but just to be a real snob... gotta handle like it's on rails and have 30+Liters.
  11. i'll quickly say... from '83 any rwd Buick a BMW 3 series or a lambo coutach
  12. It was emissions and getting better performance out of the engine. Although I'm wondering if Mazda has given up on it since we haven't heard anything since December. Drew, i did hear something like that.... oil issues? William, probably something like that. http://www.greencarreports.com/news/1096944_mazda-diesel-still-on-tap-but-performance-must-be-suitable-exec-says but only stating about the performance, but that does relate to emissions.
  13. from my understanding, using def does nothing to HP. it does add weight and complexity though. -this is my limited knowledge i have through my work related learning. you can either use DEF, or use EGR.... DEF is to keep the maintenance schedule about the same, while EGR can drastically reduce the life of the internals, at least talking about large medium speeds and medium high speeds - loco engines. I would love to see Mazda's skyactive D in comparison, since it is supposed to meet all emissione with just the catalytic converter and DPF.
  14. and will this turbo get rated 40 and meet it? i'd prolly rather have a mazda3 and get a manual...for fun. or auto, with better EPA...
  15. http://www.manualslib.com/manual/811863/Gmc-2011-Acadia.html http://www.gmc.com/content/dam/GMC/global/master/nscwebsite/en/home/Owners/Manuals/01_Images/2013-gmc-acadia-owners-manual.pdf wrong year, but perhaps it's the same way... section 7 page 23
  16. and it's very unlikely the FED will change the prime interest rate....or whatever it's called
